| Zuper friendz assemble!!!
I want you to recommend me flicks, tunes, and pages I'd probably feast on. And yest, don't forget to include where I could purchase them so it won't be a hassle to scavenge the whole earth. (I pray they're nothing near to impossible.)
I don't care if your recommendations are more inferior than your kind. I'll do a somekindaof background review on them first before I buy them.
samples of my favorites:
a. Flicks: by Wong Kar Wai, Pedro Almodovar, Sofia Coppola, Wes Anderson, Michael Michel Gondry...
b. Tunes: Young Love, VHS or Beta, Sigur Ros, Psapp, Imogen Heap, Goldfrapp...
c. Pages: by Brett Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, Neil Gaiman, Catcher in the Rye...
I can go on forever with my samples. (Even though they're just called 'samples' to start with.)
This is for a cause, you'll make someone happy...specifically, Me.

to those who have read (or currently reading) Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk,
ba't di ko naisip agad na hindi babae si Brandy Alexander (dahil bading siya) as early as during the first two chapters! i cant be hilton! NOOOOO!!!!! but the book is HOTTT. a film based on the novel was planned to start filming in 2004, starring Jessica Biel as both Shannon and Brandy. however, the filming was not done that year, and little has been said about the film since. The band Panic! At the Disco wrote the song Time to Dance based on the book. And they're also one of my favorite bands. coolness. haha. | | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment |

| To My Dear Parents,
I am bothered. Why have you never made efforts to set me up with your friends' daughters when I recently found out that a lot of them are my age and look really hot?
Your son,
Myke

| Most people hate goodbyes...I don't. I dread them.
It's easier to act as if you're crying like a soap opera lead than pretending that you're not but you're sure that any moment you'll be bursting into tears. I tried to keep my cool when I saw my sister Sarah and her family checking in for their flight. I'm going to miss JT's Kewi (Carry) Me, Unclie Mikko. I hope Kathryn wouldn't have a hard time fixing (when it get's tangled) the slinky toy I gave her. Kuya-in-law Jerome should read the spanish-english dictionary I gave him so that he wouldnt have a hard time comprehending our household language. I must admit Jake was cool with those cards and his water polo, I hope he comes back with them after three years. I cried like a sissy when I hugged my sister goodbye. After seven years of not being with her, we're back again with the waiting for another visit. Happy trip to them. Sniff.

If god gives you something you can do, Why in god's name wouldnt you do it. Two weeks left and it's back to three more years of student lifestyle. A New Yorker pinoy activist and CEGP writer once told me this, "This guy is definitely destined for greatness." I still cling on to that maxim and I hope to live up to it.

I need to learn how to love myself first before i expect other people to love me in return. Loser. Haha.

| who says you cant mix laughter and misery at the same time?
i was ten the last time i heard this song and i hated it because it sounded so gay.
now, im actually listening and dancing it for laughs.
( Steps - One For Sorrow )
May steps pa yan e. Haha. I felt so bad yesterday that I wanted to erase negative thoughts and laugh at my misery. I can be the weirdest drama king. Ulk. I also thank my best friend in the entire universe for not being such a best friend in the entire universe.
Myke: What do I have to do to be happy?
(writing his short story)
Jed: You can read my story and comment on it. That would make you super happy. But, Oh, I forgot, it has a sad ending. But it'll do.
Myke: Aren't you supposed to be consoling me and say quotable lines to make me feel better. I'm depressed here pare, and you're still thinking about yourself. HMPH
Jed: If I was thinking about you then that wouldn't be me anymore. Haha. Oh-kay, so I'm dedicating the story to you.
Myke: But the protagonist is a seventeen year old rich suicidal kid.
Jed: Perfect!
I also remember listening to Aqua before. Singing Dr. Jones, Barbie Girl, and my all-time favorite Cartoon Heroes. Haha. The female vocalist sounded like a chipmunk. LOL. But that was when I was ten and during moments of irrational depression.
Jed: Nakikinig ka na naman ng Aqua?!
Myke: Tinatakasan ko lang ang mga pre-adulthood tendencies.
Jed: Don't aspire for Neverland, because it'll NEVER help. Besides, your last name's not Jackson.
(Jed started singing "My oh my do you wanna say goodbye?To have their Kingdom, baby, tell me why?")
Myke: You never told me you liked AQUA.
Jed: Because it wasn't as if it was important.
Myke: We can make a secret AQUA party. Haha.
Jed: You and your ideas.
Back to Beck, Imogen Heap, and Panic!At The Disco before I go totally nuts.

Sarah Dimaano arrived yesterday from the OZ. She was a rotary exchange student and had host parents in Australia for a year. Darn, I envy her...well we all did. But it was a yummy lunch at her place yesternoon. Welcome back Sar, You haven't changed a lot. You're still that smart girl who asks a lot that makes us think you're actually dumb but you're not. Hope you have finally adjusted to the heat.
Book trip with Cheryl and Frenissa this morning. We're going to scavange for on-sale books and those hard to find treasures like Make Lemonade by Virgina Wolff that only cost P25.00 Haha
I'll watch X-Men for the 2nd time. It'll be for mere friendship sake. I'm sucha a good one. | | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment |
| i believe that the worst lie is upon the self; it is the root of all selfishness. what one does to himself is what he wants the society to become.
i kept on pressing the rewind button on my mind just so i wouldnt (then again) forget about valuable personal principles that most of the time get boxed inside my head and get mailed into oblivion.
i shouldnt be denying the fact that this morning, with pure honest mistake, it was my facial cleanser that i used to shampoo my hair. darn, but it did bubble!

we (with jake, patrick, and gin) played cards until 30 minutes before 2AM.
it's inevitable for me to be hostile to strangers at first meet. most of my friends say that im a big snob during parties. but im just shy. would you accept that as an excuse? they barely do.
one of my human disabilities is to assume good first impressions among my acquaintances, perhaps it's a rational mindset, or i just can't do the same when i have a hard time validating it.
it's jake's first visit in the country and he's 19, born & grew up in the jersey, and i bet you dig the picture. he barely understands tagalog which makes me flex my english muscles and twist my tongue to get a decent accent (as opposed to the strong tribal one). but it's not a problem, i'm just not used hearing too many 'like' in my sentence and hearing him ending the word 'whatever' on every other thought.
nobody could possible have said that we'd get along when i found him stuck up on their arrival. surprisingly we spent talking about things that range from the phoneix suns to his job selling movie tickets during summer.help me with making a list of what are the things he needs to do before he leaves the philippines, i need at least 10 task as ordered by mom.
1. ride a jeepney, alone.
-----
counting 15 more days until i become liable enough to be accused of statutory rape. poo-weet.
i told my dad that i wanted a typewriter this year. he can't give me a car unless there are 21 candles in the cake. my friend jake (not the balikbayan one. oh gad identical names with very less similar character) tried to kill me with his a butter knife when i told him about my unusual want.
i can already be a good breeder and i still settle for puppy wishes. maybe im more interested of a happy future than a complex and a soley materialistic one. i need a simple life for an eccentric personality to have libra in my world. | | comments: 7 comments or Leave a comment |
| post summer-recollection:
one of my most unforgettable summer experience,
aside from the usual summer flings & beaches with bitches,
was getting circumcised when i was ten.
it didnt hurt, i know it tickled.
-----
a conversation with my 5 year old niece.
kathryn: tito mikko, i taught angel (the angel fish, duh) a new trick just like you told me to do so.
me: oh, excitement. good kat. *squints to the aquarium*
kathryn: it's playing dead now.
didnt necessarily imply the cat-fish rivalry.

after watching x-men the other day,
i listed a few mutant abilities:
1. the weather reflects my mood.
2. i am a total virgin. i dont drink, nor smoke. not even sex except for.
3. unconciously, i morph into a different persona to adjust to certain people. schizoid tendencies to be exact. | | comments: 9 comments or Leave a comment |
| it had occured to me this morning that infront of a mirror and a sink, while brushing my teeth, i get to think a lot.
there were a lot of wondering about the future, my sexuality even, something fishy about 'the balikbayan' named Jake, my greatest fear which is rejection, the endless sighing of acceptance, the universe of dating couples (I being trapped inside a black hole of singlehood), a facial cleanser must contain 2% salicylic acid and especially, the steamy fried chicken and honey on my plate.
-----
not because a person can speak fluent english in a decent exchange of syntax, he is priviledge to call himself intelligent. i never did claim (albeit the strong tribal accent). my primitive relatives should not have this notion of giving too much respect to our balikbayan visitors, (even if it means snatching their own self-respect). hospitality should have its limits. Jake, is the balikbayan cousin of my brother-in-law. I think we're both of the same age, he's probably 18, and I think he's gay. what's with all the humming during breakfast and can he please stop complaining. Mud isn't potik, it's putik! Putek ka.
-----
that guy who kept on calling me on the phone? ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) beyondallrepair was right to give him a chance. he turned out to be the only person i was able to talk to when i was too pissed with the world last night. thank you dan. :)

Yuan: Tita Sarah asked me if you were bent.
Bent, a term I use to refer to those who aren't straight.
Me: What made her ask the question?
Yuan: Because she said you were skinny.
Me: ROTFL.
How logic can she get? | | comments: 19 comments or Leave a comment |
| I haven't been spending time with my sister Sarah for the past 7 years.
I was ten when she left for Nevada, LV. Much has changed, I don't call her ATE anymore.
I didn't pursue Nursing like she wanted me to follow her steps. Her homecoming will be today.
I can't wait for it. I can't wait to open my pasalubong.
-----
I plan on watching X-MEN III later. ALONE. My friends are too busy doing hardcore snoozing since they were deprived of sleep during their finals yestermorning. If I wanted a super-ability today, it would be multiplying myself for a party of five. I hope the tickets get multiplied too. Archangel & Gambit should be great, because Nightcrawler is said to teleport away from this installment.

| This is how it works: Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter. Write ten words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation what the word means to you and why, and then pass out letters to those who want to play along.
littlemisspity gave me a zeee.
0 Zero - is a number i prefer to start than one, we all start from scratch.
1 Zen – meditation can be done even if your using the toilet.
2 Zatoichi – japanese blind masseur who uses his cane to kill wannabe warriors.
3 Zamboanga – is a city, not a province, that validates my probinsyano roots.
4 Zoids - better than transformers because they resemble dinosaurs.
5 Zap – is what I want to do with my statistics assignments.
6 Zig-zag - how i think most of the time.
7 Zipper – better than buttons, but doesnt mean i like them.
8 Zoo – a perfect place to date a kind-hearted animal lover like me, because i love the lionz. groarrr.
9 Zelda - first rpg i played in nintendo if you dont count super mario as one, zelda is a princess, and link is the knight. it's not the other way around. i have a bad memory for names. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| If a guy asks another guy for his cellnumber (with no business matters) because he wants to talk to him during office hours and make friends, would his intentions be pure?
I shouldnt be jumping into conclusions but I hope, just hope, he aint hitting on me. I got paranoid after a 30 minute conversation, just a while ago, with a guy who called me in my cellphone. We talked about things as shallow as what I was going to order at Mc Donalds and him buying an umbrella. He's 23, 6 years older than me, because I'm 17.
I know I shouldnt be putting malice to friendships but spare me for some narrowness, I can be such a jerk (to tell you honestly) because I dont't have a "bisexually open mind" like Jason Mraz does when he dated his best guy friend. Maybe I should just chill and play things cool. He aint saying anything wrong yet aside from "send me your photos in my email" even though he knows how I look like already. I don't have a problem with making personal friends though, with girls that is. But this one, freaked me out because I caught myself pulling jokes and making him laugh. He 'promised' (a term he used) to call later, my battery went low. Could anyone please quit the country music already! | | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment |
| I barely know her personally but I visited her blog once. But CJ de Silva was too nice to invite me (yes, I wasnt the one who added her) in her friendster account. WOAH.
cleeek image to enlarge proof
I wouldn't want to write anything about the online community because that would be sooo unfetch since yestermorning I already did write about a sweetestimonial being read. BUT. OMFGAWD, it's that artist kid from that Promil commercial who invited me in her account without me asking her, and that's crazily coolness. Haha.
She probably got my email address from my other blog. Although, I suddenly realized this: She maybe admired by many but she'll nonetheless die if you impale her with her own paint brushes. She's all grown up, and I'm having second thoughts on calling her a gifted child per se. Fame can make any guy like me ecstatic even if it's just a friendster request. You can't blame me. Albeit, it's so jologs to think about this. Haha. I need breakfast, gutom lang ata ito. Thank you CJ de Silva. | | comments: 9 comments or Leave a comment |
| I can't deny the feeling that this testimonial made me smile before breakfast.

Gusto kita makita. I've always said that, pero what if dumating na yung moment na yun at biglang magbago lahat ng pagtingin ko sayo? Minsan pala masama humingi ng sobra. I just love the way we are now, dapat siguro makuntento na ko? You're every single person I dreamt you would be. And what made you that is that you are not perfect. I hope you take it in a good way, coz that's what makes you beautiful. I hope I can kiss you now on the cheek. TC=)
Awww, and I thought only hot lattes start my morning.
Cat, that was sweet of you. I'll be back in Kyusi, hopefully this sem-break and we'll spend more time together.

I'll have my final exam for statistics this Friday (freak!). No! I didn't take this summer class because I had to repeat it. It was a pre-requisite for all incoming psychology sophomores. It bores me to death. If I die soon enough, then you could suspect I was murdered by numbers.

Being a former insomniac, it's difficult to sleep earlier than eleven in the evening. I'd like to extend my outermost gratitude to my EX for the teensy weensy text conversation. I never thought your narcissism could put me to sleep last night. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| the human pursuit for excellence can be the most frustrating of all experience. one can toil his butt off to win this dream, yet another person is always on the prowl to snatch that away from him.
watching comedy central late one night, a line from this stand-up comedienne struck me: lower expectations. it slapped me awake all night, asking: am i living the rest of my life conquering another's spoils? no.
that line is wrong. it destroys the fabric of self-esteem, and it puts all regrets on the pedestal and all excuses along the stable. a human person cannot heed such fool's maxim; following such is tying one's self to a boulder sinking down the sea.
yet, i agree that one cannot expect too much from life. leave a margin for error. keep a door open for change. the choices that one makes can sculpt his life.
every child has reached a point when he aspired to be something, or someone: an engineer, a doctor, a lawyer, etc. and as i observed, only a few percentage will ever reach those heights they have dreamt of reaching. such reality is a frustration, right?
frustration cannot help. it will spit on your face as you are pinned to negativity. worse, it can be the sand dragging you down to the depths of depression. one should inject himself some vaccines from reality: they say, prevention is much better.
know yourself- or try to. know the strength of your will, and the versatility of your spirit. and in relation to this knowledge, never deny yourself of your limits, of your weakness. i believe that the worst lie is upon the self; it is the root of all selfishness. what one does to himself is what he wants the society to become.
acceptance brings closure to one's self; it shall bring inner sanctum. one can never call himself a failure when he knows he has done everything in his will. never sulk- defeat is to the hopeless soldier.
keep a contingency plan among your plans. one can be a rung short to success, but it does not mean the end of life. just put it this way: when everyone itches to be driving the lead, it will all lead to disaster. it is not about the actors, it is about the movie called life.
for supreme excellence is contentment.
so when things take a different turn, never be afraid to give the wheel to the deserving. | | comments: Leave a comment |
